Fiber Reinforced, Wear Resistant Grades EKT33G3P2 (Natural)

KetoprixTM EKT33G3P2 resins are thermoplastic aliphatic polyketone compounds where the polyketone base polymer consists of perfectly alternating α-olefins and CO to give the 1,4-diketone polymer backbone structure. To this base resin, fiber reinforcement, additional thermal stabilizers and high wear-resistant lubricants are added to achieve desired mechanical performance.

These compounded resins are formulated for Injection Molded parts where higher strength and stiffness combined with high wear resistance and low surface friction are required. KetoprixTM EKT33G3P2 compounds are typically used in E&E, Automotive, Consumer, Appliance and Industrial End Uses.

Engineered Resins for Injection Molding

KetoprixTM aliphatic polyketones are novel, engineering thermoplastic resins that provide superior toughness, strength, resilience & chemical resistance. We offer fiber reinforced, high wear resistant compounds using the Polyketone base resin with added thermal stabilizers, fiber reinforcement and high wear lubricant additives. KetoprixTM compounded resins are available in pellet form for use in conventional injection molding.

PROCESSING 3 KETOPRIXTM Polyketone fiber reinforced, high wear-resistance compounds are processable in conventional Injection Molding (IM) equipment. More information about IM operation of KETOPRIXTM Polyketone resins is contained in our KETOPRIXTM Injection Molding Guide. The key to processing KETOPRIXTM

Polyketones is to minimize holdup and residence time as much as possible. Please consult your Esprix compounding representative for more information.

ENVIRONMENTAL,
